Reiki is accessible to everyone and is easy to learn. There are three degrees and teacher training is available. Each degree initiation involves an energy attunement, which is a powerful infusion of energy that clears and allows the initiate to channel Reiki.
After receiving the Reiki 1 degree, you will be able to do self-treatments and provide treatments for others. Generally, Reiki providers do not begin practicing professionally until they have received the second degree. Sending long-distance treatments is also possible after the second degree. Providing attunements and teaching is possible after third degree training.
In addition to hands-on and distant treatments of self and others, Reiki is also wonderful working with animals and plants, and can be used to clear spaces and objects of negative energy. Reiki also can assist in the clearing of the emotional and mental aspects of past events, and is useful working with past lives.

Course topics include: History of Reiki * Reiki Lineages * First Degree Energy Attunement * Hand Positions for Self-Treatments & Treatment of Others * Japanese Techniques (Byosen Scanning; Gassho Meditation; Reiji-ho) * Anatomy of the Energy Body & Energy Maintenance
